PE Civil Study Guide, Seventeenth Edition provides a strategic and targeted approach to exam preparation so that you gain a competitive edge. With hundreds of entries containing helpful explanations, derivations of equations, and exam tips, the Study Guide connects the NCEES exam specifications for all five PE Civil exams to the NCEES Handbook, approved design standards, and PPI's civil reference manuals.

The Study Guide is organized to make the most of your time and is an essential tool for a successful exam experience. Relevant sections from the NCEES Handbook, design standards, and PPI's reference manuals are clearly indicated in both summary lists for each exam specification and in each of the detailed entries covering a specific concept or equation.
